I did some minor cleanup/update to the Get to know Firebird in 2 minutes paper. English (html and pdf) and pt-br versions are up to date (version 1.3). Some new info was inserted, dead/broken links removed/fixed.
Updates for the other languages are welcome. If you wanna help, download the html of your native language (or create new one based in the English version), update it using a html editor that not mess with the html code and layout (or just use notepad if you are hardcore developer), and send it back to me.
